<p>There are many "how-to" books in today's world of scale modeling, but none has covered the "why's", as well as, the "how-to's"... the artistic approach... until now. In TANKART, a painting and weathering guide book series, the focus is on taking real-life observations of paint and weathering effects and incorporate the best techniques to replicate them. Within this second volume, WWII Allied Armor, the author will go deeper into his thoughts about why of certain steps as it relates to Allied camouflage schemes. To bring these ideas to life requires a spectrum of processes and techniques which are covered in great detail; including the Hairspray Technique and the new Oil Paint Rendering -- plus Pigment Applications and Painting Olive Drab chapters that can be combined in an layered array to tell the story of each model. The book format is 8.5" x 9.5", 208 pages, softcover on high-quality book paper. There are 5 models featured inside, 4 dedicated technique chapters, plus a special bonus figure modeling chapter by Radek Pituch. Inside features over 500 color photos reproduced in a large format.</p>

<p>TA4 is in Rinaldi's familiar and unique size of 8.5" x 9.5", at 224-pages in length. The soft-touch matt laminated cover utilizes our functional Lay-Flat Binding process, which allows the book to open and stay flat on the workbench. The layout graphics will be a further evolution of the current TA style, and the two all-new Technique chapters are focused on Technique Proficiency, and Winter Whitewash finishes in all three major scales of 1/72, 1/48 and 1/35 as it relates to German Armor. The model chapters (all in 1/35) follow and will feature a Tiger II, Grille Ausf. M, a very unique Nashorn PanzerJaeger, and a Sturm 33B. The guest author chapter by Mario Eens will showcase his superb Char B1 bis in captured Beutepanzer form. These 5 model chapters will cover camo schemes from all periods, including Panzer Gray in both summer and winter, 3-tone camo on zimmerit, and the trickier hard-edge and disc camo schemes.</p>
